Camden is 1.

As I type this, my little boy is 11 months old. When I see him in the morning, he’ll officially be a one year old. I’ve been dreading this day for months. Can’t really explain why. I’ve been a mess of emotions for a while just thinking about Camden getting older. This first year has been a rollercoaster for this family- bringing good, bad, and everything in between. Anyone who has a baby knows how hard it is and no one can prepare you for it. You just have to get through it one day at a time. And it doesn’t matter how hard it was, you know that you wouldn’t change a thing because going through the difficult times (the tubes, the eye surgery) makes your family stronger. Because it’s all for that baby. That baby who will be 1 in just a few short hours…

That baby who has gone from sleeping all day, to sitting up, to crawling, and now to walking and talking. That baby that makes you look forward to waking up and makes you miss him when he goes to sleep at night. That baby who forever changed your life…

The bumbo on his head = my absolute favorite picture I’ve ever seen of that child. 🙂 Happy Birthday, Camden. One day you’ll be so happy that she took so many pictures of you. And you’ll have a kickass wedding slide show. I send hugs to you and Ashley. oxo
